The Evolution Of Nintendo's Control Pads, Illustrated

While changes to the Xbox and PlayStation pads have been relatively minor over the years (though that doesn't mean changes haven't been interesting), Nintendo's controllers have been to hell and back over the last 30 years.

If anything, the Xbox controller was a mash up of a Dual Shock and a Dreamcast Controller, which featured the same style triggers and left analog placement as the Dreamcast (and Saturn 3D) controller, and the twin sticks of the Dual Shock. It wasn't until the 360 pad that the Xbox had the Black and White buttons become L1 & L2 :)
